Reply #50: Why Close Records?

[Revolutionary Mama]

What's the point of closing records from public viewing if the candidate has nothing to hide? I mean, I can honestly see why Bush's people sealed records and blacked out key items on his military records to keep us from eye-balling certain truths that come back to haunt him.

Isn't it fair if we challenge all the candidates to come clean with political, business, investment and other records that will help us to determine if they're for the People, or someone else? I believe that it is fair to make this demand. I also believe that it's our patriotic duty to take these matters seriously and under consideration before we vote for a candidate, whether that candidate claims to be progressive, or not.
